Who are you that came sailing through
my nescient mind like an unwanted cough
announcing that I was the leaf- you the bough?
Like a shadow in the shade you drove
a soul within my slumbering soul to prove
how hollow indeed was my defination of love.
These concepts hidden in wrinkles mellow,
and pupils are distinctly seen within my shadow.
as well as sparkling tears cascading from the brow.

Amazing Piece.
Congratulations on receiving an honorable recognition award for this wonderful piece. It is hard, and bitter and forward and truly packs some power. A pleasure to have read such fine work. So very pleased to see an award on this piece. ~Pamela

Neat. Really unique way to go about the contest. I've been thinking of doing an EYE rhyme thing, but you beat me to it. Well done.
